Ok I built a computer for my cousin...
I am sure I put it together correctly, something may be a bit off.
I got all of the parts from new-egg.
When you hit the power button it flashes the blue light on the power switch then goes right back off. Sometimes if you open the computer up and wiggle some cords around you can push the power button and it will come on.
Would this be me not doing something correctly? Or is the PSU messed up?
Any suggestions? He lives like 30 minutes away from me so I have to go fix it every time it messes up on him, which is like weekly.
I usually can get it on, and it stays on until it is turned off or power goes out, then he cannot get it back on
EDIT: IT is a cheap computer, cheaply built cheaply made... This is the case/PSU it has: Newegg.com - Rosewill R5717 SL 120mm Fan ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 450W Power Supply with Tool-Free kits - Retail the PSU came with the case <_<
